Ku31's are very quiet but thats about it they dont wear well and dont grip well !
Px4 and T1rs are a very similar compound with a different patern T1rs sem to wear more even than the px4 though hope this helps

Uniroyal rain sport 2 but had to get in an XL side walls are very soft on normal ones !
If the toyo px4 are £20 less than t1rs buy them they are a good tyre .

cant beat T1R's for price BUT if you can get Federal Sport 595's in your size, get them, bloody brilliant tyres, ahd them on 3 cars and brilliant on all, in fact i had a pair on a 10 plate Zaffy and just swapped them for a pair of Pirellis due to price, which are no where near as good in wet and only as good in dry, just hope they dont wear badly

My t1r's have lasted about a year and half. Few months at standard susspension then the rest of the time front wheels had 2.75 degree neg camber. Just recently swapped front to back as the inner edge are getting close to legal limit so swapped fr back which are still perfect.

Over time, even with plenty of tread left, they get worse and worse in the wet. And now with 20 XE it spins in 1,2 and 3 gears

i highly rate the rainsports, ideal for normal daily driving.

had proxes on my old car and didnt rate them, wore very quick and i found them poor in the wet.

personally the uniroyal rainsports would be my choice and they are pretty well priced as well

Grippy tyre and lasting long isn't something you will find on one tyre, Its one or the other.

I rate T1R's, Grip well enough for the road, quiet too.
